When this all first started, a friend of mine came to me about antennas.  I 
hooked him up with some decent 900 mhz panels and he said they were doing 
great.  Hitting other nodes 15 miles away.  Said he was making good money.  
Have not looked at it since.

There's a lot of RF physics to it as well. A good antenna on a tower is going 
to work a hell of a lot better than any antenna in your mom's basement.

looking over the map, theres a sweet spot in profitability. looks like you need 
to sit 15 to 20 miles outside the urban clusters. inside the volume of them and 
the shared helium goes to pretty much none, too far out and the earnings are 
pretty much none.

  Not really much of an electric bill. It's not like traditional proof of work 
crypto. It's proof of coverage. The radios use like 5 or 10 watts. 



  I was going to buy 50 of them a few months ago, then I saw there were 
millions of devices on backorder, so I gave up.

  so its like a pyramid scheme where the pyramids more shaped like an hourglass 
and the capital gains taxes eat the profit after the electric bill?

    You need to place it in a non-saturated area. Devices have to be 900 meters 
away from one another. Visit explorer.helium.com to see a map of devices that 
may be in your area. Only select vendors are authorized to manufacture the 
devices. Do your research. Units are purchased using cryptocurrency USDT 
equivalent to $500 U.S. (shipping included). Manufacturers are about 4 months 
behind in fulfilling orders due to demand. The more saturated the area the more 
rewards are shared among those in the area, dramatically reducing 
rewards/profit."
